And yet it contains the tattletale additions that were put into the
person's script that you copied it from after you started passwording
it.

Fight exposing kids to porn, complain about sites like PCBUTTS 1.COM
that create filth and put it on the web for any kid to see: Just take a
look at some of the FILTH he's created and put on his website:
http://forums.speedguide.net/archive/index.php/t-223485.html all exposed
to children (the link I've include does not directly display his filth).
You can find the same information by googling for 'PCBUTTS1' and
'exposed to kids'.

I should add that I was fooled by Google's search results into
thinking that
SpywareBot was the evolved version of
SpyBot Search and Destroy http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
..
SpywareBot doesn't make the situation clear on it's site. The site
says over and over that the "download" is free. That's technically
true, but you also need to get a better version (one that costs) to
delete the detected malware files.
Spywarebot does indeed indentify the malware files (including registry
entries), but it doesn't delete them for free. You have to pay for an
upgraded version to do that. Or you can manually delete the malware
files, and that's what I did.
In fact, Spybot S&D flags Spywarebot as a program that should be
removed.
Spybot S&D is free and is the older program with the excellent
reputation. The other program, Spywarebot, is basically trying to
steal the reputation of Spybot S&D. It pays Google for a sponsored-
link position that tricks people.
Spywarebot probably makes plenty of money with this scam. I suppose
you have to give them a certain kind of credit for coming up with a
scam that works and doesn't really hurt people. However, if you have
the skills needed to make the webpage and write the program, you
should apply those skills to something that has a higher moral
standing.
